Why did he fail so badly?Someone please explain...I was a kid back then and I remember some of his games but that's it...

Had his breakthough in Vasco,and moved to Gremio in 95,where he won Copa Libertadores the same year.

95/96 41 games - 31 goals

Next year he moves to Porto...

96/97 45 games - 37 goals
97/98 37 games - 37 goals
98/99 38 games - 38 goals
99/00 49 games - 54 goals

And then he goes to Galatasaray...Why did he do that?With that goalscoring record he could have gone anywhere...I don't remember how strong was Galatasaray then,but from Portugal to Turkey was certainly a step down IMO.

00/01 43 games - 34 goals

Still a great goalscoring record...Then he goes back to Portugal with Sporting.Why going back now?He was 26 then...

01/02 42 games - 55 goals
02/03 20 games - 12 goals

Now he moves to Bolton...Why Bolton?I don't get it at all...

There he plays 7 games no goals,the Ancona 3 games no goals,the Newell's 3 games no goals,then Deportivo Alaves where he didn't even play a game,then Goias 4 games 1 goal,the Beira Mar 12 games 3 goals,then Anorthosis 7 games 2 goals,then Newcastle Jets 11 games 0 goals,then Criciuma 17 games 6 goals,then Ferrovario 0 games,then America CE 0 games,then Flamengo 0 games,then Cherno more 8 games 1 goal,and now Rio Negro still 0 games...

WHAT THE F***?This is so confusing on many levels...And why is he still an active footballer?
